apps2sd on stock froyo?

Has anyone found any apps that this works with or do we need to wait for all the devs to come out with new versions? All i checked wouldn't allow me to move them.
Unrooted by the way.

Every app has to be updated by the author. No way around it.

If your rooted you can just switch the toggle to 2 and all the apps can be moved over to sd and new apps install there by defaut. I'm not a real app whore having maybe 50 more or less but still, they are every last one on the sd.

No problem thankyou. Just making sure I was not doing anything wrong with it lol.

Try searching im almost positive that there is a tut on it but, You need to install the Android SDK and create a connection to your device with the sdk.
You can then run the ADB command from terminal(mac OSX) or CMD(windows)

i switched setInstallLocation to 2 but if i try to move an app to the sd card or install anything from the market my phone just restarts.
anyone else having this problem?
i installed the ota from .zip directly over cyanogen 5.0.6 no wipe
sdcard is formatted fat32/ext3/swap
any help appreciated.

Is there an easy way to find out which of the currently installed apps have been updated to support FroYo's apps2sd?
There has to be a better way than to open Manage applications, sort by size and then click on on each app..

Had this problem a while back. A wipe was required before it worked correctly.

There is also my modded spare parts that let's you choose where to force install app, without having to go through adb

There's a free app on the market called "App 2 SD", it shows all apps that can be moved and moves them for you (that should be all of them
Visit this link from your phone or use Chrome-to-phone if you used the shell command above) if you're cool like that:
App2SD
[EDIT] Having the App 2 SD app running after using the command above will crash the apps!

yeah if you want to spend ages compiling

Finally rooted my Vibant - How to remove stock apps?

I've searched around a bit (maybe not as long as I should've), but I don't see how to remove the stock bloatware apps that come with this phone.
Can someone point me to a guide, or give me a quick run down?

Its a pain lol. Theres so many i just gave up lol (fyi they don't take up much space)
This is the code :
Code:
adb shell
su
rm /system/app/<apk name>
pm uninstall <package name>

Just download Titanium Backup form Android Market and you can delete apks easily. HTH.

Maybe I'll try that. Do you have to actually do a backup/restore process before you can remove them? Or can you just remove them from the app itself?

You could do that but then ur left with a /data/data folder for ur app and its name under packages.xml.

The other thing that kills me is that a lot of these apps keep popping up for now reason. I run "Advanced Task Killer" on a frequent basis, but I'll find apps like "Slacker" sitting there, taking up memory.
I know a lot of these apps are set to run on startup.... but why are they just starting up at random times?
I feel like I have so little control over this phone... it actually scares me. I knew everything my WinMo phone was doing at all times.

Can these items just be deleted?

I went to Samsung Firmwares and got the UGJG8 firmware and flashed that using Odin and 512.pit. You will get a 100% bone stock i9000m with no bloatware.
Just remember to write down your current APN settings as you will have to readd them.

They could but that would be longer, since ud have to go through packages.xml to look for ur app. In simple terms :
Its like uninstall a windows software. Your deleting its c:\program files directory whereas im going to "uninstall software" and following procedure.

How in the heck do you find that? I've been all over the Samsung site and I can only find are Windows drivers.
**EDIT**
Nevermind, I found it on another site. I think this is what you meant, right?:
http://samsung-firmwares.com/i9000.htm
Also, what is the difference between the I9000DTJG4 and the I9000UGJG8 firmware?

Got it.
Now, is that a script I need to write for each app? I haven't even gone so far as to explore the file system, let alone write scripts. Is there a good (recommended) app for putting scripts together? ...or are you just using a notepad type editor in Windows, then copying them over via SD card?

Sure u can write a quick .bat script that does this or manually enter them in command-prompt up 2 u. Btw, what exactly is ur issue with the bloat-software ? is it the space its taking up ? or being shown in app drawer ? Cuz if ur using launcher-pro u can hide those apps from the drawer. Honestly they don't take up tht much space.

Well, the biggest thing is that they're actually running without me opening them (eg: Slacker). That is really starting to piss me off. Secondly, they are very clutter-some. I don't have Launcher Pro, though I've heard good things about it. Is this something I get from the Marketplace? It runs instead of the Samsung interface, right?
**EDIT**
Just found "LauncherPro" on the Market. Looks good, but many are complaining the latest version is laggy/buggy and has obnoxious ad placement.
Does anyone have the next most recent version?

Nope its independent of proprietary frameworks, i.e it runs on stock.

So would this be ok to install right now, or wait until I possibly flash the bone-stock firmware (which ironically would eliminate the included apps)?

Issue with app's ?

Hi.
I have issues here.
I would install market and Astro filemanager.
But I got info that they already was installed.
I cannot see them in the Application->Manage applications
It tells me, that " you don't have any third party apps installed".
I had the idea, that the GT540 is rooted, but obvciously not, as I cannot install apk's using the adb command.
Beside this, I also have this:
process com.android.vending issue.
What can I do?

You've missed the forum, this should be in General or Themes and Apps forum.
You haven't stated what ROM are you using.
Are you trying to install Astro via Play Store or from apk on sd card?
com.android.vending is a Google Play Store app, has it updated itself or is still Market?

Sorry for posting a wrong place :-(
I'm not sure what ROM I'm using. It's the dafault one, as it has not been modified, but Don't know. How to see it?.
It's an LG GT540 I use.
Iwould install it from apk on SD card, but due to a reason I don't know, I cannot get adb to work.
It tells me, that device not found.
I have formatted the SD card with FAT32, and now I cannot see the system path.
Bot worth to mention, I'm a newcomer here on Android :crying:

For recovery and fastboot look here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1224747

I'm not sure what puzzled me, but now all is working.
I did an factory reset -one of an enormeus lot-, and after all worked again.
Now I can go to Market and do all what I want.
Thanks for the link to recovery and fastboot.
Will save the link for future use.
So for now, thanks for all your comments and great infos.
They are much appreciated

Help with rooting custom device (not phone)

Hello guyz!
I have a device that I am testing, which is heavily customized. I managed to unlock the bootloader, find the boot.img and patch it with the magisk manager on an other device, and finally flash it with fastboot. The sun binaries was written in the system but there was no magisk manager so whenever I tried to execute su in adb I got permission denied as a response.
So, I found the system.img unpacked it and tried to install the app files in several destinations(/system/priv-app, /system/app, /data/app). Than way I managed to find the app in the system and now when I give su in the adb it waits and in the system I see magisk manager opening and closing immediately.
I know that I am losing something, cause I do not have deep knowledge of the Android internals, but I did my best until now, and I didn't find how to fix the issue until now. Also , for some reason I cannot install more apps on the system (other than the preinstalled and magisk)
I appreciate the help thanks guys

Lol no man not an iPhone user! It is not a phone nor a tablet! It runs Android 9 and it has a vertical resolution !
Update: I don't know if it can be considered stock rom! The manufacturer makes it but it is something like stock with some costomization and restrictions!

I think "Xiaomi ADB/Fastboot Tools" is a great option for debloating ->

If the reinstall feature doesn't work, you can factory reset your device and everything will be back to stock. Are you sure that uninstalling of system app causes the problem? May be you changed some settings in the developer options...

I think this happen after debloat.. but yeah doesn't make too much sense an app causing this.. And i don't really want factory reset . So probably i will check developer options maybe im lucky and the problem is there.

-Problem solved by just disable and enable developer options . Thanks a lot mate
